I followed northern brewers yeast starter kit directions to a tee and let it sit at about 68 degrees for just over 48 hours. There was some action before the end of the first day and I didn't see it again until just into the 30 hour mark and found no krausen but there was still some fine bubbling. The next morning before I started my sort the action stopped completely . I swirled vigorously three or four times during the time from pitching the yeast into the starter to before pitching it into the primary. This was the Wyeast abbey II for the NB number 8. I used 650 ml water in the 1000 ml flask with 1/2 cup dme boiled, cooled, and then pitched the yeast at probably 15 min after taking it out of the fridge. The yeast was a very fresh package.
I was thinking something amiss?
